Directions:<\/h2>\n

To make the filling, combine the dried fruit and 1 1\/2 cups water in a pot over medium-low heat and simmer until fruit is almost mushy, 20 to 30 minutes.<\/span><\/p>\n

Add a little water if needed during the cooking process.<\/span><\/p>\n

Working in batches if necessary, put fruit in a blender and pur\u00e9e until smooth.<\/span><\/p>\n

Return to the pot, add orange juice and 1\/2 cup sugar, 1\/2 teaspoon cinnamon and cloves, then simmer over medium-low heat until thick and jam like.<\/span><\/p>\n

To make the crust, heat oven to 400 degrees.<\/span><\/p>\n

In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and salt.<\/span><\/p>\n

Using your fingertips, rub in the shortening or lard.<\/span><\/p>\n

Make a well in the center and add 4 to 6 tablespoons water, a small amount at a time, and work it into a dough.<\/span><\/p>\n

Divide dough in half and roll each half on a lightly floured board to fit a shallow square or rectangular baking pan, about 9 by 12 inches.<\/span><\/p>\n

Line the pan with one sheet of pastry.<\/span><\/p>\n

Spread the fruit mixture evenly over the pastry, leaving a half-inch border.<\/span><\/p>\n

Place second sheet of pastry over the fruit mixture.<\/span><\/p>\n

Cut the pastry edges to fit inside the rim of the pan.<\/span><\/p>\n

Press the edges of pastry together to seal around the edges.<\/span><\/p>\n

Brush top with a beaten egg white.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sprinkle about 1 1\/2 teaspoons of sugar over the pastry.<\/span><\/p>\n

Poke holes in pastry with a fork. Bake 30 minutes, until golden brown.<\/span><\/p>\n

Cool and cut into squares.<\/span><\/p>\n

Enjoy !!<\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
